I've seen this movie twice, the first time was years ago I remember it being a bit slow but feeling worthwhile in the end.
The second time I watched it (yesterday) I thought that the beginning is indeed mindnumbingly slow and was really bored for the most part of the first hour but after the hour had past I started to understand just why I decided to rewatch it in the first place, cause the ending throws a cool twist on you.
But in the end we have to judge a movie as a whole and not just based on the fact that it finally got good in the last 25 minutes, and the first hour really is not that great at all, even less so on the rewatch because every little clue is so amazingly obvious.
The acting is okay, the characters don't really feel all that real though a bit stereotypical.
So maybe just watch one time if it's on cable or something.
